3 Things We Love About ... Saturday

SHARE 3 Things We Love About ... Saturday

We still havent figured out what were wearing for Halloween (and we only have four more weeks).

1. Queen Victoria, perhaps? High tea at the Palmer House Hilton, 17 E. Monroe, from 2-4 p.m. might get us in the mood; $35, in the lobby bar. Info: (312) 726-7500.

2. Or this old standby: Aaargh, Real Pirates at the Field Museum, 1400 S. Lake Shore (312-922-9410), sets sail on Oct. 25. Better catch it this weekend. The $29 fee includes entry to the exhibit and general admission to the museum.

3. Or channel our inner Poe: The works of Edgar Allan Poe get a macabre twist thanks to the Neofuturists, 5153 N. Ashland, at 7:30 p.m.; $15. Reservations recommended (773-275-5255 or www.neofuturists.org).
